Stop and Start Web Server running COM Component

[Kevin McFarlane]

I have a COM component DLL created in Visual C++/ATL and used on an ASP page. When I make changes and recompile I get a link error saying that it can't open the DLL for writing. The web server still has access to it. How do I stop and restart the web server? This is on Windows NT4 Workstation + Option Pack. I vaguely remember that I must do net stop xxx net start xxx Kevin

net stop IISAdmin Server will then moan about stopping W3SVC etc. Once it has stopped everything (if everything goes off without a hitch), then do whatever you want with the DLL, and restart W3SVC etc. You can also do this using the 'Services' dialog (I think - been a while since I looked at an NT workstation machine).
